Wii U Release Date Rumors Gain Momentum Courtesy of GameStop Email

After a leaked internal memo from a Japanese retailer suggested that Nintendo would be releasing the Wii U on November 18, 2012 in the United States and one week later in Japan, a new tidbit of information has surfaced to add fuel to the release date fire.

Acquired by IGN, the below image is of an email sent by a Regional Manager at GameStop which also confirms that November 18 "seems to be" the release date for the Wii U here in the United States.

As pointed out by IGN, this release date would fall in line with previous Nintendo launches as the GameCube was released on November 18 and the now legendary launch of the Wii took place on November 19. So, what say you Nintendo fans? Even though this is nowhere close to a confirmation, are you already circling November 18, 2012 on your calendar?
